How about investing those profits into nurse retention instead of executive pay?

Here’s the thing about healthcare premiums about to skyrocket: they will never come back down, short of a complete overhaul of our system for universal healthcare. Which clearly won’t happen bc of all the money tied up between health and politics.

Trump gave Amazon a $16 billion tax break to accelerate its investments this year.
Now, Amazon will replace 600,000 workers with robots as Jeff Bezos accelerates his plan to automate warehouses.

When Trump calls climate change a "con job," he is representing his fossil fuel billionaire friends, not science.
Climate change is REAL. It is an existential threat to the planet and future generations.
We must transform our energy systems away from fossil fuels.
